Yes, but -stable is so far behind in features it's -stale. And now that Jordan's merging all he can into -stable it may be thoroughly broken by the time the 2.2.6 CD is cut. All new bugs with few new features. Whether -current is officially a *RELEASE* or not, I'm ready to move away from -stable and I would love to get a -current SNAP which is a really good one, before the next tidal wave of architectural changes hits the -current tree. -- The day of the proprietary OS is over.
